Nineteen

(Words & Music by Joseph Shih)

19 year old girls got an awfully lot to teach
They've been a big help in shaping me
I've grown so much in these recent years
I've grown to understand love is care

They've taught me just to sieze the day
Lesson learned in the most painful way
Now I see I finally get
Finally found myself from all of this

I've changed yes I have
I've grown into the man I am
I turned out for the better
For all the good and all the great
I owe you everything for what I am today

I'm so old I turn 19 yesterday
Think I'll head to Canada and drink my ass away
You should come with it would be better
We can both run off together

We'll raise our cups to growing up
I'll hold your hair back when you drink too much
I'll take care of you when you pass out
We'd have our fun and then turn back south

I've changed yes I have
I've grown into the man I am
I turned out for the better
For all the good and all the great
I owe you everything for what I am today

You told me not to take flirting so seriously
Told me just to play along and let it be
Just enjoy our friendship no sorrows
Cause it may not be around tomorrow

19 years go by still have a lot to learn
Unsteady roads ahead are some of my concerns
Well we'll always have eachother
Even if you're with another

I promise you that I'll never leave
I'll always be here when you're in need
You've been a good friend I won't forget
You've helped me blossom into all of this

I've changed yes I have
I've grown into the man I am
I turned out for the better
For all the good and all the great
I owe you everything for what I am today
I owe you everything for what I am to...
